They really need to be set up on a machine ( feller gauge usually wont get them very close) and condensor must be the correct capacity. Especially on the four lobe units .
The large brass condensors are usually good even when cracked and high capacity at .30-.40 mfds.
The advance units are very adjustable.

Overall i give these old ( not new jap units) a A+ rating and have ran a lot of them in my own stuff.
